WOMEN SEEM
JOHN COUGAR MELLENCAMP
Tabbed by Jim Bauer ([email protected])
NOTE: When I did this tab I didn't have time to figure
out the riff that follows under the rythm, nor the riff
after the verse tacet. I'll post it as soon as I can in
a corrected version, unless someone beats me to it, of
course. :)
intro: EA B x2
verse:
EA B
Women seem to like me
EA B
They seem to like what I have to say
EA B
When they see me out in public
EA B
Women seem to look my way
EA B

EA B
But there always seems to be a problem

The romance always seems to end
chorus1:

They tell me all their stories
C#m B
We lay awake and talk all night

But in the morning there always seems to be some kind of fight

Like my last boyfriend really hurt me in bed
E (tacet) riff2
Hey but you seem to fit so well

My husband has just left town
